A new year begins in the garden and we have beautiful sunshine. What could be better than to open up the shed and make a start on some of those winter jobs.

1. Re edging the lawns2. Pruning of fruit trees3. Winter pruning the Wisteria....cut back the new green runners of the summer back to three buds, this will encourage strong healthy flowering. Note though, the fuller fatter dark buds will be flowering, the smaller flatter ones will be leaf buds.
